    Hi!

    When my C90S arrives, it didn't contain enough 2.5mm and 3mm screws to complete the assembly, so I went to the hardware store, bought some "metal" ones, shortened them, cleaned up the threads, and finished building the notebook... I am wondering where I can buy "real" screws for notebooks... I've scoured the Net and cannot find anything specific. Are the screws that I bought okay or is the metal not compatible for notebook assembly? (i.e. magnetics, heat, etc...)

    Thanks,

    Mike
